Create a book

- We're going to spend some time in the Projects tab…and specifically for this movie,…we're going to create a book.…Books are a terrific way to present your images…and share them with others.…Let's get started by going up to the plus and go to Book.…We're presented with some options here.…We'll go with Classic…and I'm going to select this one here.…You get some pricing information,…how much things cost for extra pages, all that good stuff.…

I'm going to pick a theme.…I'll pick this one right here…and go to Create Book.…Now, here's my initial layout…and what I need are photos to add to my book,…so I'm going to go down here to Add Photos.…It takes me to my library.…I'll select the first one here,…hold down the Shift key, go to the last one,…and add some photos.…Now, if I wanted to,…I could do Auto-Fill.…

I could fill the book with all the images…that are right here and it can do that layout for me.…Or it could place the images individually,…which I prefer to do.…Seems like when we do Auto-Fill,…I end up spending as much time un-Auto-Filling (laughs)…
